What is the Paid Family Leave law in California?

The Schlehr Law Firm

Paid family leave is a law in California that provides women with up to six weeks of partial wage reimbursement when they take leave to bond with their child. Unfortunately, paid family leave does not protect a woman's job, so women need to take protected leave under a different California law. But once they take that leave, they can receive partial wage reimbursement under the paid family leave statute in California. My name is Sara Schlehr of the Schlehr Law Firm. I work to protect California employees from discrimination and harrasment in the workplace.

How can an attorney help in my divorce in Arizona?

The Baker Law Firm LLC

In Arizona, the importance of a divorce attorney is as follows: If both parties are able to agree as to their differences in the divorce, perhaps an attorney is not necessary. But if a party goes out and hires an attorney, my advice is that it is imperative that the other party hire an attorney so their rights are protected. Because if they do not hire an attorney, the things that the other attorney will do, in terms of how to settle the case, the actual knowledge that they have of the divorce statutes will inevitably have a negative effect on the other party. And therefore, the role of a divorce attorney is very important in protecting someone's rights, especially when the other party is represented by council.

How is debt divided in Arizona?

The Baker Law Firm LLC

In Arizona, debt is divided as a community. All debt acquired during the marriage is split equally.

What does legal separation mean in Arizona?

The Baker Law Firm LLC

In Arizona, the difference between legal separation and dissolution of marriage is quite simply that as a dissolution of marriage the persons are restored to the status of single persons.

Who gets the dog in a divorce in Arizona?

The Baker Law Firm LLC

In Arizona, property that is acquired during a marriage, including the dog usually is divided by agreement of the parties. But of course there are always the cases in which agreements are impossible. But the last thing that a judge wants to do is intervene on how to divide tangible property from the dog, to the lamp, to the book ends. So what the court will order the parties to do is to make a list, an inventory if you will, and make a decision on what’s most important to each party. And they will hand one party the list and they will check off an item, such as the dog. And then they will hand the other party the list and they will check off the couch. This is how property would be divided if parties cannot be adults and come to an agreement. My name is Mike Baker of the Baker Law Firm. We serve individuals and families all over Arizona in family law matters including divorce, child custody, child support and parenting time matters.

What is a wrongful death lawsuit?

Bisnar Chase LLP

A wrongful death lawsuit really involves two different types of claims. One is the Survivor Claim, and one is what is traditionally called a Wrongful Death Claim. In the Survivorship Claim the family is entitled to all the expenses that were incurred by the death. In other words, medical expenses, funeral expenses, burial expenses and punitive damages. There's also the"Wrongful Death Claim. The Wrongful Death Claim is where each family member has a claim for the loss of anticipated financial support, and what we call loss of consortium: love, attention, affection,guidance...that you would have received from this person throughout your lifetime. So those are the elements of what is traditionally called a Wrongful Death Claim. I'm John Bisnar, the Senior Partner of the Bisnar/Chase Law Firm.

What's does an award cover in a wrongful death lawsuit?

Bisnar Chase LLP

A wrongful death claim in California can be brought by any family member. And what they're entitled to recover is the funeral expenses, the burial expenses and medical expenses. And then they can also recover whatever the lost income to them was. In other words, if a child is being supported by their parent and their parent is killed in an accident of some type, they can recover the anticipated income that they would have received from the parent. But the big unknown, the big tough one is the value of the loss of the relationship. You know, the loss of love, attention, affection, guidance, those kinds of things. That is the unique part of a wrongful death claim. I'm John Bisnar, the senior partner of the Bisnar Chase Law Firm. We exclusively represent seriously injured accident victims from our offices in Newport Beach California.

How much money can I receive in a wrongful death lawsuit from a Metro Link accident?

Girardi & Keese Lawyers

One question that people would ask is how much money can I get if I'm in a MetroLink crash. And the answer to that is I don't know. The truthful answer is the law is very strict on what you're entitled to receive; what things can be claimed and what things can't be claimed. If it's a death case, for example, you're entitled to the loss of earnings that that person no longer can provide because he's no longer part of the family. Or she's no longer part of the family. You're also entitled to a sum to make up for the loss of love, care, comfort and society of the person that got killed. So in a death case that would be the measure of damages. My name is Tom Girardi. I'm the senior partner of Girardi Keese. For the past 44 years we have helped people in California who've been seriously harmed. I'm very proud of the work we've done and the role that we have played.

Can litigation occur in probate or trust administration?

Wealth Strategies Counsel

There are a lot of problems that arise that generate litigation during probate or trust administration. A lot of those problems are because of the drafting errors that were made in the initial estate plan. That's why it's so important that the estate plan be prepared by a competent attorney. Other problems arise because of the fact that there are disagreements amongst the children as to what the parent's intentions are. And even if the intentions are clearly stated, children feel slighted, or heirs from a prior marriage contest and dispute with the second wife. And there is lots of different problems involved with blended families. I'm Jeff Matsen, and I'm the founding and managing partner of Wealth Strategies Counsel. We help people preserve, protect, and transfer their legacy to the next generation in the most cost saving and efficient manner possible.

What happens when police come to your house on a domestic violence call in Arizona?

The Baker Law Firm LLC

If a couple, or if a family, gets involved in a domestic violence dispute and the police are called, often times a chain of events occurs that is outside of the control of the individuals who called the police. There are many cases in which partners, spouses, etc. do not want the police to take someone to jail. But once the police have come, once the police have investigated the issue, oftentimes someone will go to jail. And by going to jail, and being charged, there are very serious consequences that need to be discussed immediately upon that happening with the client. My name is Mike Baker of the Baker Law Firm. We serve individuals and families all over Arizona in criminal law matters such as drug possession, domestic violence and assault.

Should an attorney look at my employment agreement?

The Harman Firm, P.C.

I believe that it is always important to hire an attorney or have an attorney review your agreement. Do you need to pay an attorney to review your agreement? Not necessarily so. But it would be my recommendation that you find an attorney, whether it be a friend or a family member, to review the language that you don't understand and have it explained to you. If you can't find someone it's worth it to spend a few hundred dollars and have an attorney review that agreement for you so that you understand it its entirety. Because many, many employees and former employees come to me and are shocked at what they had signed years and years ago and had no idea what they had signed and in fact - and in many cases hadn't even read it much less had it reviewed by an attorney. My name is Walker Harmon. I am the managing attorney of The Harmon Firm. If you believe you have been the victim of illegal employment discrimination, we are eager to speak with you.
